sat location help

I have bev on 82 and am trying to find 91 (or vice versa) I am in calgary and don't know which way to turn the dish (east or south)

can anyone help me ?

Sats are called 82 West and 91 west. Basically 91 is a little more to the west, From behind the dish a little to the right from the 82 position for 91.

are your trying with a 20" dish to get both sats or do you have 2 18" dishes and a sw21 switch? it is recommended to get a signal with bev's 91 sat first on tranponder 11.

I have 2 18 inch dishes and both are tuned to 91 now, so I am mooving one of them to 82, but for some reason can't find it.....

I also have 2 recievers.... Should I be able to hit 82 without a switch ????

OK, If you are on 91 move east, Or left from behind the dish, It doesn't take much moving. You may need to play with elevation at about 2 degrees also. It will work without the switch connected.

Can someone tell me how to get 91 west on my 20" I put 2 LNBs on the end and connect it with a 21 switch. I think I jsut need the skew angle. Please help. Thank you.

You want to cover the 82 lnb and get 91 in first, Then uncover the 82 lnb and use skew to get it in, Then finetune elevation and aiming again for it. I don't know your location so cannot post a skew setting.
